New location. Panel will be made out of a sheet of stainless or ABS plastic, and radio will be in the glove box.

Love it Richard. The custom made one still allow for some tunes. A must have for me. I chose to do the 3 pod on the A pillar. Just a glimce and I am all set. Easier to tweak also.

Here are the Stewart Warner gauges on the pillars. Temperature related gauges are on the passenger side pillar and pressure related gauges are on the driver side...... still looking for a place where to install the AEM wideband and 2 serial gauges. I will probably put them near the ashtray just like how Richard did his ..
